In honor of the Season 2 Premiere of Jersey Shore tonight, I've prepared a little homage to our girl, Snooki. Oh, Snooks. You serial offender, you! I've said it before and I'll say it again - I just want to take you home, pet you on your poof, and feed you pickles, Snooks! Don't think I could afford the vaccinations, though,

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I've been traveling a lot lately, most recently I spent the weekend in Myrtle Beach with some girlfriends. Anyway, of course I saw PLENTY of fashion faux-pas including interesting hair, rompers galore, and of course SoD's. I really need to start taking better pics, but here's one of a woman (who obviously dates a Mullet) who set off a major Shirt or Dress? alert in my group.

I know it's hard to see but let's just say, it was this style, but shorter, and I could see ALL her cellulite. Ladies, we all have cellulie but we don't need to always be showing it. Again, you don't need your ass hanging out to work it. Especially at the beach. C'mon.

We already discussed my attempt at getting a good picture at a beer festival a couple of weeks ago (and me failing horribly). However, we did not discuss my successful stealth picture taking skills. This gem was found at the same festival. Thanks again to my accomplices AB and JT for posing soooo well. Ha!

So I know it's long enough to wear as a dress. But it looks like she took the wardrobe from Precious (based on the Novel: Push by Sapphire) and decided to wear it sans pants. I mean, it's a little big. And stupid looking. She's a small girl and she doesn't need to drape herself in a peach garbage bag. Why can't people wear clothes that fit them. Argh. It's either too small or too big. But it's always perfect for this blog. So... here's the poll.

Occasionally, I actually step away from my computer and make an appearance in regular society Shocking, I know. With the weather warmer, it's impossible not to notice the scores of SoDs out there now and when I see blog material, it's hard for me to not try to get a picture of the offense. Which led to a little crazy seeping out this past weekend.

At a local beer festival, I was telling my friends JT and AB about my blog as well as my disdain for rompers. They were EVERYWHERE. These two already love to people watch, but they took it to a new level after this conversation. Also, Romper Drinking Game was created. JT spotted several SoDs including a particularly heinous one, and I pulled out my iPhone and went on a mission. Meaning I followed this girl halfway across the festival. I'm talking from Beer Station #4 to the stage. I blame Romper Drinking Game. And this is all I have to show for it.

Total FAIL.Nice thumb. Just imagine a black dress shirt with a belt around the waist because that's basically all it was. HORRENDOUS.

As you OBVIOUSLY probably already know, we're into social networking. You can find Shirt or Dress? on Twitter, Facebook, and at beer festivals. Any who, I use Tweetdeck to track all the SoD happenings on the interwebs. Love the search functionality. If you mention wearing shirts as dresses in your tweets, I will find you! Here's some fun stuff.

Thanks to readers who tweet material such as: @dazzledsteph, who said:

@shirtordress When I saw this postcard on PostSecret today, I immediately thought of you... http://bit.ly/cc3adW

I lose my faith in humanity...

@onedancinblonde: this is a shirt, but....I'm going to wear it as a dress, is that okay? if its not, i'm still doing it. http://tinyurl.com/2fyyapz

Here's the garmant in question, BTW:

...And regain my faith in humanity, like when @ChristineMiX tweeted:

Remind me to buy a shirt and wear it as a dress. Apparently, it's all the rage right now. #Geez

As Hollywood Gossip so adequately reported, Tila Tequila is ridiculous. Apparently she is signed up for Celebrity Rehab. There are plenty of shirty photos of Ms. Tequila floating around, but this one my favorite. Read: most nauseating. I don't even know if this qualifies as an article of clothing. I mean... what is it??

I was in LA for a couple of days last week and saw some major SoDage out there. After meeting up with some friends for brunch in Santa Monica and some shopping/people watching/singing along to street performers singing Disney tunes on the Promenade, I had my camera out for a group photo while SHE walked by:

Ah, Cinco de Mayo. A day when Americans shamelessly exploit a date that's really not too big of a deal in Mexico's history (no it's not Mexican Independence Day) by drinking margaritas, downing tequila, and making really bad Mexican jokes and use of Mexican words/cathphrases/whatever. Seriously if I hear "Si Senorita" or another Three Amigos reference today I'm going to go loco.

Foster's isn't actually Australian for beer. Despite the claims of the ads, apparently it's not widely enjoyed in Australia. Liars.

Okay... so today I'm back again with the Aussie humor. I'm sorry, Australia. REALLY I AM. Although you really shouldn't be complaining. Y'all have koala bears and men who look like Russell Crowe walking around your streets. Bite me. I'm just MIFFED by your Supre store. MIFFED.

And this nightmare... which doesn't look really bad until you realize that the shirt is see-thru and her tights are showing. Listen, Supre. I know that water spins differently in your toilets and stuff down there, but seriously!? Seriously!?!

Yesterday's Aussie post was so fun, let's continue the bad jokes, shall we? I've been informed of a really awful store in Australia called "Supre" which, in my opinion, is the worst thing to happen to Australia since the movie, "Australia." Anyway, Everyone remembers this scene brought to you by the legendary Paul Hogan:

A loyal reader in Australia sent in this pic, aptly titled "Lingerie and Heels." Sounds like a bad cop duo.

"Oh G'day mate - Who are those shelias fighting crime on the streets of Sydney?"
"Oh, G'day mate as well - that's just Lingerie and Heels. Blah blah blah shrimp on the barbie."

Isn't my Australian awesome? I totally worked at an Outback Steakhouse for a summer in college. Anyway, back to this picture of a bunch of shelias (not fighting crime - more like committing crimes of fashion) skanking it out with their bums hanging out (wonder how you say "skanking out" in Aussie? Anyone?) I realize that not everyone in this Shirtordress Gang is participating in the debauchery, but we've got some contenders in there. Namely, Boobs McGee in the front row. Seriously, I can see down under. Ah, c'mon! You knew I was going to use that one.

I don't think there is enough material to really constitute these as dresses, especially since they don't have backs either.

They are just very very very short.

They also look as if they are in the middle of a girls on cars montage in a bad 80's hair band music video. In fact as I write this post, I'm listening to Quiet Riot for inspiration. True story. And I want to bang my head against the wall after seeing this picture.

A disclaimer: I am not a hater. I don't want or need to bring people down. I do however find shirtordresses comical. Sorry. I make fun because it's funny. I don't do it because I feel the need to "put people in their place," I simply want to try to understand what makes someone leave the house without pants. Generally, shirtordresses don't give anyone - skinny, fat, athletic, etc - a good look. Some people can pull off this look, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone pull off an elegant and sexy look off in a shirtordress. Minidresses, yes, but not anything we'd be voting on here. At any rate, I think anyone can look and feel beautiful if they have the confidence from within and they certainly don't need to show off their lady bits to achieve that goal. So ladies, stop trying so hard. Save the overt sexiness for the bedroom. Leave a little mystery. With that said, I'm posting a shirtordress FTW today.

Seriously? Yesterday it was Whitney Port using a coat as a dress, today it's this chick trying to use a bathing suit cover up as a dress. I mean, I get it. You want to be comfortable. I'd be okay with this had she been photographed perhaps poolside, at a cabana, in a park, outdoors SOMEWHERE with a drink that requires an umbrella. However, I have it on high authority that this is in da club and that drink requires no decoration of the parasolic type. I mean, this is just stupid looking.

I seriously feel like 84% of Lamebook Background Check posts include a girl wearing a Shirt or Dress in the background. We've seen these before and I'm sure we'll see them again! This just proves my point that if you want to get made fun of, this garment's for you. Clearly this picture was taken simply to document the sheer ridiculousness of this chick's "outfit."

I really can't tell how this girl thought she could wear this as a dress. I realize she's obviously trying to pull her dress down and that guy is obviously trying to pull her dress up but... it really just doesn't look dresslike in any way to me even with the belt. You can't just throw a belt on a shirt and say - Ta-da! Belt does not make a dress. In other news, that girl's skirt makes me want to play an 80's video game. That is all. Let the voting commence.
